Ford 1210. Anyone Else Have One?

[blackrams]

but have used a 5' Caroni RFM quite a bit.

Yep, I've used a pond scoop and several other implements bush hogs, finish mowers, tillers, spray rigs, booms, ect....... But I have no idea what a Caroni RFM is............

Edited: Thinking some kind of Rotating Flail Mower?

Caroni is a manufacturer and RFM = Rear Finish Mower.

Agri Supply sells Caroni now. Back around 1992 when I bought my deck, a local Central Tractor store was selling them. The Caroni was a lot of bang for the buck.

Here's a shot from the evening the L3200 was delivered. The 1210 has the deck hooked up. It was a chance to get a "family" picture of all three.

Nice, I'm envious.

Unfortunately, I don't have the storage space for that many tractors, if I did I'd own many more attachments/implements for my 1210.

So, I decided to add a lean to onto my shop. Hey, a man's gotta do what a man's gotta do.

I already have the 1210 and a 702a front blade, a 3 pt. box blade, a 3 pt. grader blade, Woods RM59 3 pt. finish mower, a home built platform and boom. Had a bush hog and a sprayer unit for it but, let them go to someone else that needed it more than I did.

While I don't expect to ever find everything I want for my 1210, I'm still keeping my eyes and ears open. One never knows it one doesn't ask.

Here's a list of the attachments I'd like to find (just in case someone has one sitting around in their way).

All are original Ford implements. Kind of like that Tonka Toy set I had as a kid, I want the entire set.

768 Loader, a or b version
105a Tiller
757a backhoe
715a snow blower

If anyone has any of these laying around gathering dust or rusting, I'd be interested in adopting them and providing them with a good loving home.

Me neither. The B7500 was sold when the L3200 arrived. The poor Ford spends its life outside.

Since it seems that your Ford is a neglected child.....
I will volunteer to adopt it.
I already have 3 of it's older(?)sisters.
Everybody lives inside!

Just saw this thread. I don't have a 1210, just a plain 1200 but it has the 768 loader that came with it when I got it. Don't know anything about an A or B, but just now looking at TractorData.com under attachments for the 1200 they list a 40" and a 48" wide bucket, same for the 1210. All the specs are the same except the 1210 lists an A and a B. So I guess I have the B since mine is 48" wide. Only attachment I have is a Independent Manufacturing rear blade. Same HP for both seems but I've only got 2 cylinders and yours is 3, but with 4.5 more c.i.!

I sure appreciate your concern and willingness to help out but I just put the rear scraper blade on it this morning. We had an inch or so of snow overnight and it wasn't fluffy enough to get with the leaf blower. Not enough accumulation for the Kubota (FEL & PTO blower). It may have melted on its own by evening, but a quick couple passes exposed the blacktop to make it more certain. Seemed like a good opportunity to get the Ford ready to spend the rest of the winter at the church. Checked and topped of and ready now. For the past few winters we have been doing our own snow removal. It's less than 2 miles away, so the Ford stays there and I drive the Kubota in when needed.

Which church?
Do you leave the key in it, and leave it outside there?
